Miguel Sano, who has been a thorn in the side of the Royals, hit a mammoth homer in each game. Eddie Rosario was 5-for-5 in Game 2. Game 1 Wi...5796Sun, 02 Jul 2017 04:24:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/royals-8-twins-1-another-fielding-blunder-leads-to-another-ugly-inning-r5792/Grounders back to the pitcher are supposed to be easy outs. That’s not how things have worked out for the Twins the past two games. Ervin Santana threw a potential double play ball into centerfield and Kansas City capitalized with a five-run inning. The suddenly unstoppable Jason Vargas gave the T...5792Sat, 01 Jul 2017 03:49:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/get-to-know-felix-jorge-r5791/Felix Jorge will be making his big league debut on Saturday but he's probably a name that isn't familiar to a lot of fans. The 23-year old right-handed pitcher has been in the Twins organization since 2011 when he signed out of the Dominican Republic. I recently named him the ninth best prospect i...5791Sat, 01 Jul 2017 00:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/game-thread-twinsroyals-630710pm-r5790/It’s a 4-game series over 3 days in Kansas City this weekend. If all 4 games are played, the Twins will reach the 81 game mark for the year at the conclusion of Sunday’s game and that is the midway point. Being in the middle isn’t always a good thing. Being in the middle of a project means you are...5790Fri, 30 Jun 2017 11:17:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/picking-the-2017-all-star-starters-r5785/Baseball's Midsummer Classic is quickly approaching. Fan voting for the starters ended on Thursday and rosters will be announced on ESPN at 7 p.m. on Sunday. The 2017 MLB All-Star Game will be played at Marlins Park on July 11.

Of course the team could use another top-tier starter, and they’re without an impact arm or two in the pen. If there’s a place that opportunity doesn’t abound however, it’s in the outfield. Right now, that’s to...5784Thu, 29 Jun 2017 19:15:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/breaking-byron-buxton-r5786/“The leg kick is me now. I’m going to stick with what I do.” Byron Buxton, March 2017. There is a stand-up bit Jerry Seinfeld had about pilots and their insistence on telling passengers just exactly what they are doing in-flight. I’m taking the plane up to whatever altitude.

The former top prospect in all of major league baseball, Buxton has struggled mightily at the plate. The Mendoza Line has gone from unreachable to home, and he's flirted with any number of stan...5779Thu, 29 Jun 2017 14:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/twins-4-red-sox-1-mejia-shines-kepler-powers-twins-to-fenway-win-r5782/After losing the first two games of this four-game series in Boston, the Twins really needed to play well on Wednesday night if only to get the taste from an ugly Tuesday night loss out of their mouth. As always, it starts with pitching. Maybe he was helped by being given a first-inning lead, but...5782Thu, 29 Jun 2017 03:47:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/twins-international-signing-period-preview-r5777/Baseball's July 2 international signing date is quickly approaching and this signing period can be one of the most valuable ways for organizations to add talent. These players can sign for big bonuses but they are signed at age 16 compared to older ages for MLB's domestic draft.

That seems to be a theme for the Twins this season. The Twins have been good in one-run games, but when one gets out of hand, the Twins typically haven't found a way to stop the bleeding. Well, until Chris Gimenez comes in. At least on Tuesday night in Boston, that didn't...5778Wed, 28 Jun 2017 10:39:00 +0000
